- Digital Agenda Stakeholder Day
-
25 October 2010 Brussels, Belgium
The Digital Agenda, Europe's new strategy for the digital economy, was published in May and it is now time to discuss how to put it into practice. The 101 actions announced in the Digital Agenda are not just a "to do" list for the European Commission – it is a call for everyone to join in. The idea is to create a broad movement to make the Digital Agenda evolve as a dynamic instrument to meet the challenges of the information society: copyright, broadband, privacy, security, health, research, etc. You are invited to join the debate together with Vice-President Neelie Kroes on how to make the Digital Agenda a reality. If you would like to participate in the event, then propose an idea (deadline: 24 September 2010). The authors of the best ideas will be invited to the event.

- EU research offers quicker recovery for burn victims
-
(17 September 2010)Burns victims can look forward to speedier recoveries thanks to European researchers who have identified the harmful bacteria or fungus that often lurk in burn wounds, causing infection and delaying the healing process. EU support for the research came from the WOUNDMONITOR ('Mobile system for non-invasive wound state monitoring') project, which received EUR 1.67 million from the 'Information society technologies' (IST) Thematic area of the Sixth Framework Programme (FP6).

- Digital Agenda: EU grid project unlocks processing power of 200,000 desktop computers for European researchers
-
(14 September 2010)EU researchers will have sustainable and continuous access to the combined processing power of over 200,000 desktop computers in more than 30 European countries thanks to the European Commission funded European Grid Infrastructure (EGI) project launched today. The Commission is contributing €25 million over four years to the EGI-InSPIRE project to link the processing capacity of desktop computers when they would otherwise be idle and so give researchers the processing power needed to tackle complex problems in environment, energy or health. The EGI, the largest collaborative production grid infrastructure for e-Science ever created, will enable teams of researchers in different geographical locations to work on a problem as if they were in the same laboratory. Reinforcing research infrastructures such as EGI forms part of the Digital Agenda for Europe, the Commission's strategy to maximise the social and economic potential of information and communication technologies.
